67 Dart Convertible Rescue
Engine is still in the engine bay but it should be coming out this weekend.
I don't expect much from the engine as it has been open and exposed to the elements for decades.
The front driver's side stamping says it is a 318

According to some other posts...
PM is Mound Rd engine assy plant
Displacement 318
R is Regular gas
2249 is September 24, 67 build date
2025 engine built that day .
I pulled the dist.
At first I did not expect it to come out.
I took a 2x4 on one of the screws that holds the vac can on and tapped it with a hammer, to my surprise the dist rotated.
Did the same on another screw and it rotated back.
A 2x2 under the dist and a light rotating tap as before and it popped right out.
Not pretty in the hole!
